New Mortal Kombat 1 trailer gives us Quan Chi's release date and shows off another Peacemaker teaser
techradar.comGloriously violent fighting game Mortal Kombat 1has received a new trailer showing off iconic sorcerer Quan Chi while also giving us a release date for the return of the classic series antagonist. We also got a sneak peek at DC's Peacemaker, who's slated to join the fight in 2024.

The trailer also gives us tour first look at Khamelion, a new DLC Kameo Fighter who can assist during matches with support moves. She's also available as part of the Kombat Pack or as a standalone purchase.
